To find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. The theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Therefore, the square of the hypotenuse (c^2) is equal to 10^2 + 24^2.
c^2 = 100 + 576
c^2 = 676
Taking the square root of both sides, we find:
c = √676
Thus, the length of the hypotenuse is √676 cm, which is 26 cm (rounded to the nearest whole number).
Therefore, the square of the hypotenuse (c^2) is equal to 10^2 + 24^2.
c^2 = 100 + 576
c^2 = 676
Taking the square root of both sides, we find:
c = √676
Thus, the length of the hypotenuse is √676 cm, which is 26 cm (rounded to the nearest whole number).
